The Rhythm

The rhythm, the rhythm, your heart is beating to something very old
The rhythm, the rhythm, it pounds inside your soul
The rhythm, the rhythm, it’s microscopic, it’s macroscopic too
The rhythm runs through you, thru everybody too
It’s always there no matter what we do
The rhythm, the rhythm, it starts it all and it keeps it running true
The rhythm, the rhythm, the Big Bang's residue
The seasons come, the seasons go, the world keeps spinning 'round
We're all on common ground, so common it's profound
‘Cause to the rhythm all of us are bound
You got the rhythm movin' in your soul, the rhythm's gotcha movin' to and fro
You got the rhythm baby don'tcha know, ever'body gets to do the do-si-do
Your atoms shimmy like a Daddy-O, not too fast and, baby, not too slow,
They shimmy like a little dynamo, the primal rhythm is simpatico
With your life, that's right, with your life, that's right
So go on, and live it up, yeah go on, and live
The rhythm, the rhythm, you’re heart is beating to something very old
The rhythm, the rhythm, it pounds inside your soul
The rhythm, the rhythm, it gives you life and it shapes each galaxy
The water in the sea, the leaves upon a tree
And a universe of stuff we cannot see
The rhythm, the rhythm, it starts it all and it keeps it running true
The rhythm, the rhythm, the Big Bang's residue
The seasons come, the seasons go, the world keeps spinning 'round
We're all on common ground, so common it's profound
‘Cause to the rhythm all of us are bound
The rhythm has a place of harmony, hidden in the stuff that we can't see
Harmony's a possibility, even from invisibility
Let go of yesterday, tomorrow too, be here now and let the feeling brew
A little while the feeling gets to you, now there is nothin' else that you can do
But go on, and live it up, yeah go on, and live
Go on, and live it up, yeah go on, and live
